Lol, you clearly picked up on the theme.I'm becoming accustomed to believe that this gif means that John00 is about to drop somegoodgreatSERIOUS knowledge on us and we should all just sit back and take notes. Lol. But seriously John you continue to drop gem after gem on us and for all it's worth it's much appreciated. As an Accounting and Finance double major (soon to be headed for my master's in accounting) opening a shop is always something I've thought about and people like you continue to help me with my research.
On a separate note: Had to UnDS my Piggies today, amazing shoe and I would actually double up if I had the chance.Turned so many head since everyone was in dark colors for some reason.
Good on you for getting your education. I have NO problem sharing what I know with you or anyone. Glad I could help. It's what NT is ALL about.
Dope picture!
This somewhat used to be the business practice for Nike SB as well. They used to push shops out that weren't owed by actual skateboarders, hook their homies up with top tier accounts and keep shoes that would obviously sell in small numbers. NSW took over and they've changed that. When the SB madness settled and the gold box era came, Nike SB saw all of those "newer" shops they pushed out had turned into decently profitable business, while the "homies" that they catered to, had business models and practices that led them to lots of trouble.My man john00,
I remember when i used to skate ive seen it numerous times all the locals of the shop (which skated) always used to get box price on qs's.. these were also the same dudes that literally spent every minute off board sitting on the couches in the shop and helping out. I was even lucky enough to have a put aside for me from time to time, and Ive even seen these people hold out on dudes who arent skaters, lieing about sizes etc... (this is also a shop which isnt around anymore)
In regard to in regard to the jordan 1's, this is an old video from the berrics but nick diamond, talks about skating the jordan 1 back in the day along with mike carroll and some others,

DJ Clark Kent isn't a normal person. Last year he talked about working with Nike SB and collabing with someone that was "skateboarding" to put out a SB. For all I know (and the fact that I know him a little bit) he more than likely either had something to do with the McRads or went into Nike's kitchen and had them push those out for him in a size 13. He does that with AF1's ALL the time. Look though his collection, he has AF1s made in SB color ways.I thought that there were no sz 13s made in the MsRads...but DJ Clark Kent has them on his Instagram....
